Chapter 6: The He Family Tradition, Two God-Tier Fs

Dungeon Hall, first floor.

At this moment, the entire hall was packed with students who had come to participate in the mock exam.

Since this was a joint mock exam for all of Tianhua City, besides the First High School, there were also students from the Second and Third High Schools.

The mock exam served as the debut for the newcomers who had bound their Soul Professions.

Not only did they want to shine, but they also had to perform exceptionally well.

Most importantly, whether the mock exam results were good or not was directly related to whether one could obtain eligibility for the College Entrance Exam.

Following the guidance of the on-site staff, Zhou Chu arrived at the waiting area for the First High School.

Su Chang was serving as the team leader for the First High School this time, and at this moment, she was instructing the students on pre-exam precautions.

For instance, no wearing equipment with additional attributes, and no using enhancement-type potions or Soul Power Apparatuses, and so on.

Once discovered by an examiner, one would be immediately disqualified from the exam.

At this time, two guys as sturdy as black towers blocked Zhou Chu's path.

These two guys were a full half-head taller than Zhou Chu, one with red hair and one with white hair.

At this moment, both had ferocious grins on their faces and were cracking their knuckles loudly.

Looking at Zhou Chu with expressions like wolves encountering a lamb.

Old acquaintances.

The Xiongshi Xiongdi brothers, Xiong Tian and Xiong Hai.

The two bullies of the First High School.

Notorious and infamous.

Everyone called them the "Red and White Twin Evils!"

They were also Chen Bo's most loyal subordinates.

They often acted as "thugs."

Under Chen Bo's instigation, Zhou Chu was often treated like a toy by these two brothers.

"You two, don't be so fierce; don't scare our 'Bottom-Feeder Hero'."

Chen Bo walked up from behind with a smile on his face and once again draped his arm around Zhou Chu's shoulder.

"Hey, hero, as agreed beforehand, obediently hand over the item, and you can avoid physical suffering."

A sense of disgust rose in Zhou Chu's heart, and he secretly thought to himself: "Keep acting cocky now; sooner or later, I'll make you my Contract Material!"

Although he had the impulse in his heart, he couldn't do so for the time being, so he could only pretend to be stupid: "What item?"

Chen Bo was stunned for a moment, then immediately changed his expression: "Don't play dumb with me; the reward you got yesterday, give it to me quickly!"

Zhou Chu, however, had an ignorant and clueless look on his face: "Oh... I think... I used it."

Chen Bo was furious: "Daring to play me? It seems the abuse you usually receive isn't enough. You two, search him for me!"

The Xiongshi Xiongdi brothers walked up, and the two of them searched Zhou Chu up and down together.

Their movements were extremely rough.

After searching, apart from a few crumpled banknotes, there was nothing.

Seeing this, Chen Bo became even more annoyed and embarrassed.

What he didn't expect was that Zhou Chu, who was usually tamed like a pet by him, would actually dare to play him!

However, under the public gaze, Chen Bo couldn't go too far.

On such an important day, it wasn't worth it for a mere Normal Difficulty Skill Scroll.

There would be plenty of days for him to suffer later; it didn't have to be right now.

At the same time, a loud broadcast sounded in the Dungeon Hall.

【The Tianhua City joint mock exam is about to begin! All candidates, please make your pre-exam preparations in advance!】

Chen Bo could only give up for the time being. He glared at Zhou Chu threateningly, said "Just you wait," and returned to the front of the line.

At this time, the candidates from the three high schools consciously stood in three columns.

And the students standing at the very front of the three teams undoubtedly became the focus of the entire venue.

These three were all outstanding representatives of the three high schools in Tianhua City this year, and all had bound S-Grade Soul Professions.

They had even obtained guaranteed admission to Shenxia University in advance.

This also brought glory to the faces of the principals of the three schools.

To put it bluntly, the main event today was to see which of these three could take first place in the mock exam.

Chen Bo, who had bound an S-Grade Druid, went without saying.

He was standing at the very front of the First High School's team, looking smug and acting as the most prominent leader.

At the very front of the Second and Third High School teams stood a handsome boy and a cold, beautiful girl.

Qin Ye from the Second High School and He Muxue from the Third High School.

One was the school heartthrob of the Second High School, and the other was the school beauty of the Third High School.

A pair of handsome man and beautiful woman standing side by side formed a beautiful landscape.

It was just that because of the addition of the ruffian-looking Chen Bo nearby, Zhou Chu felt it was a bit of an eyesore.

According to custom, before the exam, the principals of the three schools would each give a pre-exam mobilization speech.

After Su Zhanghe, the principal of the First High School, and Luo Dachun of the Second High School finished their speeches, He Laijin, the principal of the Third High School, finally walked up.

Seeing that after He Laijin finished speaking, he had just walked off the stage a few steps when he seemed to suddenly remember something and returned to the podium.

"Allow me to delay everyone for two more minutes."

"Taking advantage of this opportunity today, I would like to arrange a good marriage for my precious daughter Muxue in advance."

"Any student present today who can win first place in this mock exam can become my He Family's future son-in-law!"

"Furthermore, all expenses for university in the future will be covered by my He Family!"

As soon as He Laijin finished speaking, it immediately caused an uproar.

"No way, the head of the He Family is actually specifically proposing a martial arts competition for marriage?"

"This is a tradition that the He Family has continued for a hundred years; you actually didn't know?"

"Just thinking about being He Muxue's husband feels great!"

"Who do you guys guess will win this prize, the idol Qin Ye or Young Master Chen?"

"Of course it's the idol Qin Ye. The two are simply a golden boy and jade girl; it would be against the laws of nature if they weren't together!"

"Golden boy and jade girl is nonsense! You need to have solid strength! Young Master Chen is an S-rank Soul Profession Druid, and his bear transformation is incredibly fierce!"

"I guess it's the school beauty He. If the school beauty He happens to perform extraordinarily and takes first place, then those two will have worked in vain!"

Without a doubt, this was the most tempting prize of this year's mock exam.

One could see He Muxue standing below the stage with a Novice Bow in her hand, her cold, pretty face showing not a trace of fluctuation.

Meanwhile, Qin Ye, who was standing not far beside her, turned his head to cast a tender look at He Muxue, then turned his head again, just in time to see Chen Bo, who was flipping him off with his middle finger, his eyes full of provocation.

At this moment, Chen Bo had three more skills than everyone else present, for a total of five skills.

Moreover, having previously consumed Skill Proficiency Potion, he had already upgraded all five of these skills to level three, so his strength would inevitably be even stronger.

The Chen Family could be said to have poured a great deal of money into this son.

Facing Chen Bo's public provocation, a look of anger instantly appeared on Qin Ye's face.

For the girl he had always liked, he must defeat this guy who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.

As the broadcast sound for the start of the exam rang out again, a green portal appeared in front.

The green color represented Normal Difficulty, which was also the lowest difficulty in the Novice Dungeon.

And the Novice Dungeon had a total of three difficulties: green—Normal Difficulty, red—Expert Difficulty, and gold—Heroic Difficulty.

Only after someone cleared a lower difficulty would a higher difficulty Copy be unlocked.

First, the three S-rank students, because their strength surpassed everyone here and they also had a competitive relationship, all chose to solo.

The others formed teams with each other as previously agreed.

Because Zhou Chu had not made an agreement with others in advance, and on top of that he had awakened the weakest F-rank Soul Profession, no one else was willing to team up with him.

The key was that in most people's eyes, they treated Zhou Chu as a soft persimmon and all wanted to see him make a fool of himself.

Seeing Zhou Chu standing alone at the back, the homeroom teacher Su Chang couldn't bear to watch anymore.

She said to a four-person team: "Can you guys take Zhou Chu along too?"

"Teacher Su, one more person means 1 less Qualification Point for the College Entrance Exam! If we add him, we still have to clear the Expert Difficulty Copy!"

"That's right, if we can't pass the Expert Difficulty, none of us will get the College Entrance Exam qualification."

"Teacher Su is biased; just because Zhou Chu is a student in your Rocket Class, you want to drag us from other classes into the water too..."

Su Chang could only sigh helplessly.

A four-person team only needs to clear a Normal-level Dungeon to get the full 5 Qualification Points and obtain the College Entrance Exam qualification.

According to the rules, for every additional person in the team, the College Entrance Exam qualification points will be reduced by 1 accordingly.

Therefore, if a five-person team clears a Normal-level Dungeon, each person gets one point less.

Since a Normal-level Dungeon can only be challenged once, this missing point must be obtained through the higher-difficulty Expert Difficulty.

Zhou Chu is bound to the lowest Combat Soul Profession; if there is a team willing to take him, it's fine, otherwise, it is almost hopeless to obtain the College Entrance Exam qualification.

Since they can easily get 5 Qualification Points, absolutely no one is willing to go and challenge a higher difficulty.

Seeing Su Chang looking at him with full of apologies, Zhou Chu smiled indifferently and said: "Teacher Su, thank you for your kindness. I'll just solo it by myself."

Su Chang said decisively: "Zhou Chu, you definitely won't be able to pass by yourself. I suggest you repeat a year; maybe you can bind a better Soul Profession next year!"

For students preparing to repeat a year, the school will issue a free Soul Washing Stone to repeaters, which can wash away the bound Soul Profession.

But how could Zhou Chu, who had bound a god-level talent, repeat a year!

Of course, he would even less team up with others!

Is an F-rank Hidden Profession weak?

He is an F-rank with two god-level skills!
